The losers of Manchester United’s match versus England in the Euro 2024 final were Luke Shaw and Kobbie Mainoo.

Mikel Oyarazabal’s late goal in the 2024 European Championship final gave Spain a 2-1 victory against England.

Luke Shaw and Kobbie Mainoo of Manchester United were consequently obliged to accept second place rather than medals.

Mainoo played for more than an hour in every knockout round, and Shaw recovered from an injury to play the entire ninety minutes in the championship match.

Kobbie Mainoo, devastated

Seeing Kobbie Mainoo at full time, looking dejected after seeing his delight after winning the FA Cup, was difficult.

Mainoo rested on the goalpost and got up on his own when the final whistle blew.

Although Mainoo had picked up his runners-up medal, he had removed it with his hands rather than worn it.

The statement from Manchester United

Following the loss, Manchester United sent a message to Luke Shaw and Kobbie Mainoo.

“We are gutted for you lads—hold your heads up high, you have done your country and us proud,” the club wrote on X.

This was the appropriate note to hit. Supporters of Manchester United are particularly pleased with Kobbie Mainoo’s performance during the competition.

Despite being only 19 years old, he has already made a name for himself as an England starter, and he played a crucial role in the Three Lions’ success during the knockout stages, especially in the semifinal.

Luke Shaw performed admirably as well; Manchester United supporters have noted that Shaw is one of the world’s top left-backs when healthy.
